Greetings!
I would like to welcome everyone to the new AJAX GBrowse mailing list,
and thank you for your interest, participation, support, and so on...
this is very exciting!
Those of you that aren't on the list are being CC'ed and should subscribe here:
https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/gmod-ajax
This list is for announcements, development discussion, and pretty
much anything related to this project... so, let me get the ball
rolling.
0. DEMO
Just so everyone knows, the demo of what we've done so far can be found here:
http://genome.biowiki.org/
1. CVS ACCESS AND SOURCEFORGE STUFF
We are now part of the Generic-Genome-Browser module of the GMOD
SourceForge CVS repository (see the "ajax" subdir).
Developers can check the code out like this:
cvs -z3 -d:ext:YOU...@gm...:/cvsroot/gmod co
-P Generic-Genome-Browser
If you want to be a developer, please get a SF account (at sf.net) and
e-mail your login to Scott Cain (ca...@cs...).
We also have bugtracking through SF (which I haven't taken a look at,
but will in a moment) and a CVS commits mailing list, which you can
subscribe to here:
https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/gmod-gbrowse-ajax-commits
Scott, thanks a million for setting all this up!
2. LIST ADMINISTRIVIA
Currently, if you hit "reply" to a list message, it replies to the
person who originally sent the message. While this is nice for
announcements and keeps the traffic down, it's not great for
discussion, and discussion is the main reason why we have this list.
I want to change the settings so that hitting "reply" will reply back
to everyone on the list... anyone for or against this? I'll set this
up if I don't hear otherwise.
3. OTHER RESOURCES
We will be using the GBrowse web of biowiki.org (Ian Holmes' lab wiki)
for posting info about all aspects of the project. The web is rooted
here:
http://biowiki.org/view/GBrowse/WebHome
In my opinion, the two most important items are our more-or-less
development outline:
http://biowiki.org/view/GBrowse/WishList
and this "documentation dump" I started up the other day (so, it's
woefully incomplete... but evolving):
http://biowiki.org/view/GBrowse/AJAXGBrowseDocs
The documentation dump is a good place to start if you're new to this.
4. JOB ANNOUNCEMENT
We are looking for a full-time Ajax developer for this project.
Spread the word! More details here:

5. QUESTIONS? REQUESTS? COMMENTS?
Please post to the list or e-mail me.
Cheers,
